Snow Day in Alabama

Well today we woke up with snow in SOUTHERN ALABAMA! Hello snow! The entire neighborhood didn't waste time and got some gear on and went out to play. Neighbors were going down the hills in laundry baskets etc. Luckily we had aidan's sled from Germany! Aidan was so set on building a snowman it was cute! We have so many snowmen along the street. Our neighbors across the street have a huge one by their house thanks to the Teens at the park! It looks awesome.
I really hope you enjoy these pictures. We sure had a fun day sure glad I opted to wait for Kennedy's surgery for next week or we would have missed the fun!
Ben's hopefully going to be able to put in a pass so he can stay home and help with Aidan. I won't be able to let him take her and me stay home cause I'll be too antsy.

This sweet thing!

See this sweet baby? She's so full of attitude I could kiss her to pieces. She is having tubes put in her ears next friday the 19th of Feb. Keep her in your prayers but she'll be fine! And a lot happier after!!!!

Are you ready for some FUN!

I'm so excited for our Super Bowl Party with our friends here at Fort Rucker. Pictures will be soon to come!
Don't really care who wins! Lets get the grub on!

Up to no good!

We have been up to no good! Kids have been sick with ear infections and respitory infections that we've just been hanging out at home! Kennedy is getting to do a little better on the nebulizer. And the dr told me to try it on Aidan's nasty chest cough and at first he was freaking out then was a BIG boy! I love my kids and couldn't be happier to be their mom right now. Aidan's into drawing EVERYTHING. So if you get something in the mail thats the littliest scribble or even a picture please share your excitment with us instead of mocking him! He thinks he's really writing letters! And Ben and I are supporting him in this endeavor! I'll buy as many stamps as the kiddo wants me to. Enjoy the pictures!

Wondering whats up with us?

So I added the same pictures can you tell we haven't done much lately! Oh and check out our new song.





HELLO everyone. No we are not dead. I'm just feeling like my blog is just blah! Anyway we have had the worst luck with health lately. Kennedy and Aidan have had back to back ear infections and Kennedy is going to go see an ENT for possible tubes. Kennedy's hips are still struggling. And leave it to Ben and I for not knowing quite sure whats going on. Dr wants to wait for 3 more months to do another xray then possibly send us to a specialist in Birmingham for possible surgery. We will wait and see. We are praying that everything works out for the best! Ben is on his bubble and waiting to start his JOPD. So its nice having lots of family time. Ben is really enjoying his time here and is so excited to start flying!!!

I am scheduled to have my tubes tied and the novasure done on me! March 19th is the surgery date! My lovely sister Mandy is going to be helping us with the kids by keeping them at her house in TN. Then we will go up the next weekend after I have my check up and we will go see our cute nephew Cameron be baptized!!! I have started doing hair here in Alabama and am liking it. I've met a really close net of friends and I'm simply blessed that they've been there for me through thick and thin. I love having true friends that you know you can count on. So shout out to Christina, Mandy and Tami (and many more!) You have made coming to Fort Rucker so much easier! Well I better get my butt going with dinner....I'll post more later!

Aidan's new do!!!!

So Daddy FINALLY let mommy give Aidan a mohawk again and we love it! Aidan is in heaven he says he looks just like his buddy Jason! This was the only haircut Aidan has sat through without screaming and I think its cause I let him have it his way.
You look good buddy!!!!!

The Red Truck

 

This is the new addition to our family. A ford ranger! Aidan is in heaven he loves to ride with Daddy in his red truck! I hope its a good car for our family. Hopefully it'll give us many memories.

Our Aidan

 

Aidan is getting so big. He's in taekown do, gymnastics, and bowling. He is loving being social. He sure puts mom and dad to the test with his moodiness. And hopefully it'll pass soon! We love him every minute and I'm getting sad that he's growing up so fast! Love you Gatoraide!

Our Kennedy

 

This is our Kennedy. She is so full of life lately. She loves to click her tongue, blow rasberries, and say WOAH! She's too much fun~! We love her oh so much!

Mr Holladay DID IT!!!

 

Well the fun has just begun! Ben is a Warrant Officer in the United States Army. He is now starting his wait time to start flight school! We are so proud of Ben of his accomplishment! Graduation was such a fun time! And the fun was in HUGE thanks to Mandy! Thanks for being there to watch and take care of my kids! I'm so glad your my sister and are somewhat close to us! This truly helped us out!
There are more pictures to come I am just truly tired tonight! Enjoy! Congratulations Mr Holladay

CATCH up

 

There are TOO many photos to put them separate. But Miss Thang aka Kennedy turned the big 1! We took bottles away and she's a charm! Nana and Papa bought us tickets home for Christmas! Thanks guys we had so much fun relaxing with ya.... Papa took Aidan and Kennedy to Chuck e Cheese! Kiddos had a BLAST! Sure miss being in Utah but we are making friends in BAMA! (well I am Ben's stuck in school!) Anyway I have tons more photos to post so I shall end this one! Click on it to make it bigger!

Seriously? Motherhood?

Wow what a week it has been. Don't get me wrong we've had fun its just that its been hectic and made me think of my mothering skills or shall I say I have NONE! I have been trying so hard to have patience with Aidan. I feel bad cause I lose it more then I'd like to and I use swearwords when I'm upset. Aidan then repeats them and I laugh about it. I shouldn't really laugh but sometimes its the only funny thing that happens that day! Kennedy has this silly cold back. For some reason it just lingers with her. Maybe cause she was born early I'm not sure but its driving me insane. She's not a snuggle baby either so its very hard to soothe her. At times I wish Aidan and her would have switched places cause Aidan was super snuggly and I could've handled Aidan being my last baby cause he let me baby him. Kennedy wants NONE of that. So it breaks my heart a little. I am pretty impressed the way I have handled Ben being gone. I haven't cried maybe twice. I keep up with things quite well and get the kiddos out of the house! I love it when people say everyone's done it....cause it makes me wanna say seriously no kidding but its still not fun!!!! Well I do have pictures to post but my house needs a little attention too. Oh what shall I choose? Bed maybe? Hopefully you are all enjoying your Dec! I can't believe its going to be 2010! Holy cow where has the time gone?

When it Rains.....IT POURS

They aren't lying when it rains in the South it pours. My entire backyard looks like a POOL! Aidan was concerned about his toys. They'll be just fine!

Happy Thanksgiving

We got to go eat Thanksgiving with Ben and the dining facility......The food was NOT great but the company was to DIE for! We had missed our dad so much that it was nice to spend some time with him. I love being a family. Here is some of our pictures from the dinner! Kennedy loved the food......which she ate lots of my plate!!!!
Hopefully everyone had a fun and safe Thanksgiving weekend.

My Baby Girl

 

Seriously why do they grow so fast. And if they are premie doesn't that mean they stay smaller longer? Ha not my kids....Kennedy is off the charts in height~ This picture is unbelievably precious to me!

Sleeping In Style!

 

Aidan got this Twin size race car bed. Can you tell he is in love with it? He slept the WHOLE night didn't get out of it ONCE!!!

35 years for my mom and dad!!!

Thanks for the picture Mandy! Hope you guys had a blast at the HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH!!!
Love ya!
